[Bug 1436908] Re: [launcher] Show overlay icon for sound in launcher

 

>From UX point of view having a speaker icon on top of launcher icon
doesn't really give much value to the user.  It would just take away
from our app icon designs and make the launcher more cluttered. There
are already multiple possible indicators appearing on top of an icons
(progress bar, count emblem) and this would be just one more. And it's
not even very important one.

If you can come up with a very good use case when that information is
crucial I'm of course willing to reconsider.

  [launcher] Show overlay icon for sound in launcher

  Incomplete

  This is a feature request.

  It would be very useful if an app making sound would get a "speaker"
  overlay icon in the launcher, like what happens on chrome tabs.
